I have been researching my family history since 1975. My grandmother, Mae Foster Powell was a great influence in getting me started. She was a fountain of information on her and Grandpa Adam's family. She had a great memory and she was a great storyteller. The amazing thing was that when I began researching census records etc. I discovered that she was also very accurate in her relating names and events in her family histories. I hope to be half as good as she was when it comes to relating mine to my grandchildren :) It was my love of genealogy and family history that began my writing career. I have published several books, She Walks the Night Winds, based on my fathers Cherokee ancestors and A Murder in Moffettville, based on the murder of my mothers first cousin and his wife in 1970. I am in the process of writing several more books which I hope to publish in the future.

Martin Luther King Jr. Last Speech
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was born January 15th, 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia to a Baptist minister and his wife, Alberta. Both father and son were born with the name "Michael" but when the elder Reverend King attended a Baptist conference in Germany in 1934, he decided to change their names to "Martin Luther" in honor of Martin Luther, the leader of the Protestant Reformation. King Jr. grew up in the South and experienced first hand the sometimes subtle and most often brutal racism of that time. Having won accolades in high school for his debating skills, during college he felt "an inner urge to serve humanity" and chose to enter divinity school. Below is a brief snippet of him giving his final speech in the fight for Civil Rights before his death.
